100% correct decision to cancel.  The only name I want to be there for definite next year is Rage, and with their new tour dates, it looks hopeful.

US dates look promising, but the missing hints of them being carried over, makes me worried. They would have high interest in announcing them for 2021 before offering refunds. But it doesn‘t look like it...

Same with Lollapalooza and Electric Picnic. Went straight into refunds.

We all knew it was coming with these difficult times but it still hits me hard. Going to this festival for over 10 years and not flying over to Leeds and being in Bramham Park on August Bank holiday weekend is going to feel strange.

Hit hard that, my personal 6 year run over and my Dads 25 year over. Was gonna be the first year camping as well 

Just pray for a new lineup next year with a Bring Me into Rage Sunday

The fact that all posts on R&L socials about Rage have been deleted don't make me hopeful that they'll be playing next year

They’ll reset it all soon, if anything it should make you more hopeful because they then reannounce

I wonder if the BBC will do some kind of special festival stuff in place of their coverage of Glastonbury and Reading this year? Maybe showing entire sets of legendary performances from those festivals down the years.

Maybe we could finally get the pro-shot footage of RATM's 2008 performance. :ph34r:

I'm actually confident that out of the three headliners, RATM are the ones most likely to be kept on next year.

As am I, touring fits and they’re the only headliner to have all announcements removed

and I said this a couple of days ago, do either ehat they’re doing for big Weekend (which is doubtful) or just replay legendary sets (which is easier)

Says in the FAQ the lineup will not be the same.

Was never going to be the same - if one act doesn’t come back then it’s not the same. I think it will look very similar.

I think so too. Rage’s 2021 tour knocks out all of summer except a bit at the end where they can fulfil their 2020 commitments. I would be very confident of all three repeating.

Why would they do this though if they thought otherwise, seems really strange given the tour dates work well. I imagine Stormzy is just around all summer and so is Liam.

They have a glasto documentary thing going on - seeing an oasis and ratm set broadcast instead would be good though to replace them. not sure what they would do for stormzy

But wouldn‘t it be dumb to keep it a secret before giving refunds? If they scheduled their US tour to accommodate their 2020 commitments, it has to be a done deal by now, hasn‘t it?

We’re all saying about Rage being at Reading this year and Download next but what if Reading has artists in the pipeline due to headline next year, that don’t have other commitments.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
